Still featured on the front page: Paeonia broteri. An Iberian (Spain/Portugal) peninsula endemic locally known as Rosa albardeira (Portugal) or Rosa de Alejandria (Spain). My plant is still small and needs some more years to grow to maturity clearly. Rather late flowering for a species, but it does look quite healthy.

From the city of Kharkiv, eastern Ukraine and under siege unfortunately. A wonderful video showing the young foliage of many species.

Have a ‘Mary Gretchen’ and in late summer 2020 I see a lot of ants around the root, hade to dig it up and the root was damage so I cut away all damage part and got five small roots. Planted after some days and last year all grow up and now they are on there way again! From 1 to 5 plants, happy!

Brassy Lady. A lutea hybrid with very beautiful flowers, although at times they are a bit hidden.

P. kesrouanensis and P. cambessedesii have flowered already, but this (as yet) unnamed hybrid one is very early as well, flowering together with its maternal parent P. caucasica. Who the father might be is unknown. It did take some battering from the late snow, wind and frosts this year, but always looking good to my eyes.

I’m always surprised to see how peonies react to late frosts. Early this morning and a few hours later, from terribly looking to standing firmly upright again. P. cambessedesii and P. wittmanniana.

Hello, does anyone have photos of peonies that were sprayed with a chemical containing glyphosate
7 Comments-
I don’t have any image (and I couldn’t find any in Dutch literature as well). Mostly glyphosate isn’t used in peonies. Only in Winter when they bud are fully underground is it still being used to kill of the weeds. But if you use it when actively growing, you’ll nearly always have some damage.
When sprayed from above on the plants themselves…Read More

W polskiej literaturze też brak takich informacji, parę lat temu kupiłam piwonie od jednego hodowcy który używa tego środka w celu eliminacji chwastów z piwonii, /jedną lactiflore oraz suffruticosa/ wówczas spotkałam się z tym pierwszy raz i nie wiedziałam co się dzieję sądziłam że może są zarażone przez nicienie, , ale w trakcie rozmowy z p…Read More

There is also no such information in Polish literature, a few years ago I bought peonies from one grower who uses this agent to eliminate weeds from peonies, / one lactiflore and suffruticosa / then I saw it for the first time and I did not know what was happening, I thought maybe they are infected by nematodes, but when talking to you, it turned…Read More

@edyta-bialous-cieslak Leaf nematodes usually give the following symptoms here: stunted growth, deformed leaves, lack of buds or flowers on stems. So many symptoms are alike. Dead foliage between the leaf veins and not going through them is a tell-tale sign of leaf nematodes which you won’t see as a result of glyphosate, this usually shows later…Read More

I couldn’t locate any images of leaf nematode damage immediately, but I remember making a video of some of them a couple of years ago which I posted here on the site. The difference between infested plants and healthy plants is very clear from that I think:

@edyta-bialous-cieslak You’re lucky (and I’m less so) as I found I do have some plants growing now that have herbicide damage. Roundup (glyphosate) was sprayed just prior to them starting to grow, most plants show no damage, but this one is the first one of the row, so probably it has received an overdose of it. It didn’t kill it, but the…Read More

Warm days and cold nights tend to result in deeper red colouring leaves. If one is looking for pretty reddish young foliage, many intersectionals are a good choice with their maple-like foliage at that stage of growth. I don’t necessarily select for it in my seedlings, but it can be an added bonus for sure. Here some of the nicer ones amongst the…Read More

Some images of species peonies as they are growing now. Images 1-2: P. kesrouanensis. 3: P. cambessedesii. 4: P. morisii. 5: P. wittmanniana. 6: P. emodi. 7: P. mascula bodurii. 8: P. mascula hellenica. 9: P. mascula mascula (from Turkey).
